Text box not Displaying "\" then capital letter

I'm trying to display a parameter (which is a file path) in a text box on a drawing, but it seems to miss out the "\" if followed by an uppercase letter. E.g. if i type "C:\Abc" in the text box, it displays "C:bc" on the drawing!

Anyone know how i can display the desired value?

Hi Mark,

 

"\A" looks like a reserved keyword in the TextBox. I cannot explain the behavior. I need to check with the project team.

Many thanks!

Hello @mark.almack,

Try C:\\Abc\\... other than C:\Abc\.

Refer more from below link.

Hope it helps.

why has this been marked as a solution?

 

It's not!

 

I'm trying to display one of my parameters, and it is not allowing me to do so.

 

Why does anyone other than the author have the rights to accept as solution?

The Author of the topic, Autodesk personnel and Expert Elite Members have the ability to mark posts as solutions.
There should've been a notification of who accepted a solution to your problem, if this was not correct then you should be able to unmark the post by clicking the 3 dots and selecting "not the solution".

Sorry i can't help with your original problem, but i hope you can get it resolved and correct the (hopefully accidental) incorrectly marked solution.

Hi Mark,

 

I was the one tagging Xun's reply as the solution. I thought his explanation made sense. It seemed to work for me. I need to take a closer look. In the meantime, I am removing the solution tag from his posting.

Sorry for the confusion!
